The cluster that contains a group of older stars located in the halo of the Milky Way is known as a globular cluster. These clusters are tightly bound together by gravity and typically contain stars that are very old, often several billion years. An example of a well-known globular cluster is M13, also known as the Hercules Cluster, which is situated in the constellation Hercules. Globular clusters are important for studying the early history of the galaxy and the formation of stars.

What is a tight group of older stars located in the halo of spiral galaxies?
Global Cluster
What kind of cluster is a tight group of older stars in the halo of spiral galaxies called?
I think you are describing a "globular cluster", which are associated with older stars by most astronomers.
What is a tight group of older stars located in the halo of spiral galaxies is?
That is a globular cluster. These clusters are spherical collections of stars that orbit around the center of a galaxy in its halo. They are typically made up of thousands to millions of stars that are much older than the stars found in the disk of the galaxy.

What is a cluster of tightly packed of older stars called?
A cluster of tightly packed older stars is called a globular cluster. These clusters can contain thousands to millions of stars, and are usually found in the outer regions of galaxies.
What is the collective term given to a group of stars?
A collective noun for a group of stars is a cluster of stars (small group) and a galaxy of stars (large group).
What is a group of stars that form when a lot of gases and dust come together?
A group of stars that form when a lot of gases and dust come together is called a star cluster. Star clusters can be either open clusters, which are loosely bound and contain young stars, or globular clusters, which are tightly bound and contain older stars.
Is the Virgo cluster a globular cluster?
No, a globular cluster is a group of stars that are part of a galaxy. The Virgo cluster is much bigger. It is a large nearby group of galaxies.

How do you define a cluster?
In astronomy, a cluster is a large group of celestial bodies such as stars or galaxies.
